attic Ex emitter published by Canadian Newspapers Limited is Hayfield etre rauasnar JUN et Barrie Ontario is 1m man Free Enterprise Here Means Competition Too Our compliments to Barries city council are about as Irequent as feathers on afish but this is one time wefeei they are deserving of at least small pat on the back Their action in rejecting petition by Barrles gasoline retailers to curb fur that competition inside city walls is commendable The retailers feeling the pinch which we all feel at times would have had bylaw enacted to restrict licensing of new outlets Heaven only knows where it would have all ended if the service station op erators had got their way It is quite reminiscent of the labor and industrial lobbies in the senior gov ernments at Ottawa and Queens Park which havetwisted the cabinets tails for years to better their positions fre quently at the expense of others It would have been nothing new in municipal government either had the retailers been able to convince local city council to put the brakes on new com petition in the area But the last nail was driven into the petitions coffin not so much by the fact the city population is keeping pace with the increase in th number or outlets as by the fact that there are simply for more automobiles per service stationto day than there were lo years ago Pop ulation and the number of stations have hopped undo per cent But the number of motor vehicle licences issued It the Barrie ofï¬ce has skyrocketed 116 per cent This makes the service stations plea unjustiiied in terms of simple mathe matics The real threat to the City of Barrie would not have been so much in grant in this one small group its wish as in the precedentsetting ambition If that segment of Barries economy had been successful in wiping out competition other groups would rightly feel justified in making bid for easy street Pretty soon Barrie would be stagnant puddle of unchangEahle commErce No new ser vice stations no new hardwares no new drygoods shops etc until the populat gt ion could accommodate On paper it sounds like Utopia the one described by sir Tbomas More in romance of that title published in 1618 not the
